PROJECT SUMMARY The American Society for Matrix Biology (ASMB), founded in 2000, promotes the field of extracellular matrix (ECM) biology to advance knowledge and inspire translation of ECM-centric science to improve human health in the face of aging and disease. ASMB supports biennial workshops that are of similar scale and scope to individual Gordon Research Conferences and Keystone Symposia. The overarching goals of these workshops are to delve into key topics that are timely and of particular relevance to matrix biology. The theme of the 2022 ASMB Workshop is the Many Faces and Functions of Fibroblasts. The specific aims of this R13 application are (Aim 1) to disseminate and share new knowledge about fibroblast biology, their heterogeneity, the patterns of phenotypic differentiation, and how to quantitatively measure fibroblast outcomes; (Aim 2) to promote the educational growth and careers of young scientists; and (Aim 3) to promote the careers of women and under- represented minorities. To achieve these aims we have assembled a slate of world experts in the field of fibroblast biology, from cellular profiling and developmental origins to their heterogeneity and diversity in disease progression. Young scientists will be featured as prominently as possible in the available talks selected from abstracts and a mentoring session is included in the meeting schedule and three travel awards are being offered to support young investigators’ travel to the conference. Finally, the representation of women and minority scientists in the slate of invited speakers and moderators altogether is 59%. These Aims are consistent with the mission of the NIH and the goals of the R13 funding mechanism. R13 funds will be primarily allocated to partially support travel and housing expenses of keynote speakers, travel awards, and conference rental and A/V support to ensure a successful meeting.

项目概要 美国基质生物学学会（ASMB）成立于2000年，推动细胞外基质领域的发展 (ECM) 生物学，以推进知识并激发以 ECM 为中心的科学转化，以改善人类健康 面对衰老和疾病。 ASMB 支持两年一次的研讨会，其规模和范围与 个人戈登研究会议和基石研讨会。这些研讨会的总体目标 旨在深入研究与基质生物学特别相关的及时关键主题。 2022年的主题 ASMB 研讨会是成纤维细胞的多面性和功能。此 R13 应用程序的具体目标 （目标 1）传播和分享有关成纤维细胞生物学、其异质性、模式的新知识 表型分化，以及如何定量测量成纤维细胞的结果； （目标2）促进 年轻科学家的教育成长和职业生涯； （目标 3）促进女性和弱势群体的职业生涯 代表少数群体。为了实现这些目标，我们召集了一批该领域的世界专家 成纤维细胞生物学，从细胞分析和发育起源到它们的异质性和多样性 疾病进展。年轻科学家将在可用的演讲中尽可能突出 从摘要中选出，会议日程中包括一次辅导会议和三项旅行奖励 正在提供支持年轻研究人员参加会议的旅行。最后，女性的代表性 少数族裔科学家在受邀演讲者和主持人名单中总共占 59%。这些目标是 与 NIH 的使命和 R13 资助机制的目标一致。 R13资金将 主要分配用于部分支持主讲人的差旅费和住宿费、差旅奖励和 会议租赁和视听支持，确保会议成功。
